I was just watching the show Re:Evolution on Fox Sports and they showed the Red Bull Ride in Australia which was beyond sick. Crazy drops, hits, step ups, north shore, rocks, and even a weird sliding thingy all in one 1/2 mile course. Messed up stuff.
The other thing they showed was called the Race Down which was basically a head to head DH down a salt mine shaft 2000 feet below the surface of Germany.
I don't know how they think of this stuff but I'm glad they do.

I love watching that stuff. It's so beyond my comprehension, but amazing as hell.
Ever see that World Cup DH through the streets of Lisbon, Portugal? Amazing urban assault course down these narrow streets and stairs. pretty sweet."There is a hell of a huge difference between skiing as a sport- or even as a lifestyle- and skiing as an industry"
